Which point is located at the glabella, at the midpoint between the medial extremities of the eyebrows?

• A. GV 28
• B. M-HN-3 YÌNTÁNG
• C. M-HN-1 SÌSHÉNCŌNG
• D. M-HN-6 YÚYĀO

Answer: (B)

This question tests your ability to match a point to a precise facial landmark. The glabella is the smooth area on the forehead right above the bridge of the nose, between the eyebrows. The point located exactly at the midpoint between the inner ends of the two eyebrows on that region is Yin Tang. It’s commonly known as Yintang and is marked as M-HN-3 in many point-location schemas. Yin Tang is used to calm the mind, relieve frontal headaches and eye strain, and address nasal or sinus issues, so it sits right at that central, midline forehead spot. The other points listed are located at different locations on the head or face and do not occupy the glabella midpoint, so they don’t fit the described position.
